The Campus Club at the university is a beautiful space, and the view of the Minneapolis skyline from the ballroom is a spectacular celebration in itself. There is one corner of the patio that allows for a view of downtown, and so it is a natural space to take photos if you have your wedding there. So, of course, I have to make it more complicated for Cari + Mike's wedding - a tilt-shift lens, colored gels, and backlighting - to bring in that pre-thunderstorm quiet blue serenity into this image.
Ack, there is so much technique in this photo, I don't even want to talk about it except to say that the flash is gelled, I'm using a tilt shift, and someone cracked a good joke
